HA NOI (VNS) — More than 200 steel sheet pilings used at the construction sites of the Ha Noi metro route are in degrading conditions, according to the Ha Noi Urban Railway management board.

The findings came after a thorough inspection of safety at the metro construction sites was carried out following a series of accidents early this month.

The Ha Noi Urban Railway Management Board this morning said that they will ask to replace the degraded steel sheets, which account for about 10 per cent of the total sheets used at the construction sites.
